General Info:

The Graduate Mathematics Association and the University Math Society will be hosting a LaTex Seminar on Thursday, October 10, 4:05 – 6:00 p.m. (location Little 237). Note: this date has been changed, pushed back by one week.

For those of you who do not know, LaTex is a high-quality typesetting system. It is the de-facto standard used in academia for the communication and publication of scientific and technical documents in several fields.

In the seminar, we will cover the basics of LaTex including article formatting, different environments for displaying data or equations, and figure manipulation. We will also cover a few key packages needed for writing papers such as BibTex for creating a bibliography, Tikz for creating graphics and Beamer for creating slides for presentations or posters.

Everyone should make an overleaf account, https://www.overleaf.com/ before coming. Please BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP.
